"Thank you Robert,
The information you give is really helpful and reassuring. I will certainly have a look especially as, for the time being anyway, I am quite happy for the book to only be available through Createspace and Amazon. Thank…"

Robert Ray Miller replied to SR Clowes's discussion 'Createspace' in the group Self Publishing"And Tanya, the set up is totally free. They do offer extra benefits at a cost, but if you are fine with your book being available only through Createspace and Amazon.com, and if you have a cover photo or don't mind using a stock photo, then you…"

I decided to create a website to help market my stories for when they are in print. It was FREE to create the site with a company called Webnode. They have lots of templates and styles and you can adapt and tweak the site to your own preference.My site is still in the early stages but up and running all the same. The only cost I incurred was the price of the domain name for 12 months it was £11.99 (approx $18). Yes there are companies out there that provide the domains a little cheaper, but I…See More
Roxanne Bland replied to SR Clowes's discussion 'Createspace' in the group Self Publishing"I'm a tiny publisher, and as a printer, Createspace was a breeze to work with. I provided my own ISBN number and took it from there. I made many changes to the galleys and they made the alterations with no fuss. Also, they designed my cover and…"

Continue A great tool for all writers
Posted on March 22, 2012 at 9:53pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
I'm a traditional writer armed with a pad and good pen, but often I use my laptop to write stories in manuscript form. As a reader I prefer 'real' books rather than e-readers, but I understand the convenience of the latter. The tool I have started to use recently is a digital voice recorder, for the ideas that pop in the mind when a pad and pen are not in easy reach, ie when driving.
The one I bought was £27 a little more expensive than stationary but very convenient especially as I…

Being an author has its good and bad points. As a creator, when the words flow its an amazing feeling that you have invented new prose to entertain and help escapism to people who do not work at their dream job.
